  1. http://www.cnn.com/ Aircraft crashes into New York building Small plane smashes into high-rise Manhattan apartment block Witness: There were people screaming, a huge flame President informed but crash believed to be accident NORAD orders fighter aircraft patrol U.S. cities as precautionary measure
  2. I get some kind of 80's smooth jazz when I call in, and it seems like thats what I get every time. I even got it for a few seconds when I called in this morning.
  3. Does she ever have any problems checking her email on her cheap computer? If not then I'd call it a deal.
  4. Firewall off, services installed, thats why I came here. Like I said, goes to the internet, can access the router firmware, but the computers on the network cannot ping the laptop, and the laptop cannot ping any other computer on the network. Also, when I go to change the computer name, the workgroup box is gray. I have also tried running a winsock fix, installed the latest drivers for both network cards, all settings at default.
  5. I am having an odd problem with a Toshiba laptop. Ethernet or wireless, I can get an IP adress, ping the router, and even go online, but the machine WILL NOT acess the others on the network. It assigns a standard IP adress (192.168.4.115), but when I try to access another computer on the network (\\192.168.4.101), can't connect. When I try to ping the other computer from the laptop, 100% loss, same if I ping the laptop from the desktop.
  6. I will probably never own another Dell, but I own an Inspiron 1100 laptop, and it runs great, no complaints. As for the desktops, once again I'll never own one, but I have no complaints with them either. I run a computer repair shop in the Dallas area, and I have to say that Dell is the easiest machine to work on. The service tag makes it effortless to find all the drivers you need.
  7. I just had to do my daily call to the Microsoft activation center, and I started to wonder, does anybody out there know their hold playlist?
  8. I'm running IE7B2, and today I upgraded my internet from a 4mb line to an 8mb line. When I use Newsbin to download from easynews I get the full 8mb (1.1MB), but when I download with IE I can only get about 300KB. Is there some kind of setting somewhere that is capping my connection through IE?
  9. Ya, I gave MS a call today and they wanted $35 to talk to somebody that wasnt reading out of a manual.
  10. When I try to install IE7 on my fresh install of MCE05 I get the following error: Why did it not validate? You have encountered an unknown error. Please contact your local product support team for further assistance with this issue. I've never had this problem before, what would make this happen?
  11. I've had this problem too, the way i've found to fix it is to rename the file to uxtheme0.dll, and then add the new file.
  12. Does anyone still have the info on how to create a custom GUI setup screen for windows xp? I've been searching all night, and I remember seeing the info here, but can not find it anywhere. And also, I've had a hard time finding info on how to create custom login screens. Its true that the internet is full of usefull information, but unfortunatley its full of complete worthlessness too.
  13. Well, I dont think we can share ISOs here, but what you can try to do is download SP2 from microsoft, save it to something like C:\sp2\SP2.exe, then go to the run dialog and run c:\sp2\sp2.exe /u: /x:c:\sp2\files After that, burn a cd with the i386 folder in it. That sould solve your problem. Or possibly, just put youre first cd back in...
  14. Ya, I saw on another board someone had posted with a question and suggestion, but said that it only worked on 2K. He said that when you try to do this in XP it automaticly re-loads everything. 1. Load everything on your master image system, including all applications and what not. Setup the NTFS permissions and such as well. 2. Replace the IDE controller drivers with the Standard Dual channel PCI IDE Controller, and reboot so this driver is in place, instead of the system specific drivers. **This step is important** 3. Finally open Device manager and under System Devices Uninstall Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System. Do Not Restart when asked. Uninstall the few remaining devices that you can uninstall without restarting. 4. Shutdown the system and make a ghost image of this. Any other suggestions?
